Warning
The warning describes the acts that maycause harm to users.Observe the
following operations in order to avoid electric shock or personal injury.
Do NOT use the product if its enclosure is damaged.
Contact our local distributors oragents ofAutel undersuchcondition.
Stop using the productimmediatelyif it isfound with smoke,spark,
or burnt smell.

iii
Incaseofsuchcondition,theproductpowersupplyshouldbe powered offat
once. After the smoke and peculiar smell disappears, contact our local
distributors oragents.
Do NOT remodel the adapter or the powercable.
Otherwise,suchremodelingmaycause shortcircuitorfire.
Do NOT weld the battery without permission.
Such operationmaydamagethebatteryandresultinleakageandexplosion
of the battery.
Avoid impacting the battery(such ascollusion and falling, etc).
Such condition may damage the battery case or result in battery leaks or
explosion.
Pull off the adapter from the power socket when charging is not
needed.
The adapter may get overheated if it is connected with power supply for a
longtime.This maycauseoverheating,deformation orfire.
Ensure that the plug of the adapter is inserted into the specified
power socket.
The adapter plug may vary by region. Make confirmation whether the
specification of the adapter is consist with the specification of electric
appliances in your region. Otherwise, this may cause overheating of the
equipment,electricshock,fire,chemical leakageinside the battery,explosion
or other serious consequences.
Stop using the adapter when its plug or wire is damaged.
Do notchangethe batteryunless the plug ofthe charger is inserted intothe
socketcompletely.
Do not touch the electricwire with wethands.
Touching a wire witha wet handcan cause anelectric shock. Whenpulling
out the electric wire,hold the electricwire head rightlyto pull out the wire. Do
not pull off the electric wire directly. Otherwise, the electric wire may be
broken,causingelectricshockandfire.

iv
Do NOT dip the product into water or avoid being caught by water.
If the enclosure is caught bywater or otherliquid, dryitimmediately. Ifwater
or other liquid enters the inside of the instrument, power off the product at
once. Continuous use mayresultin productdamage.
Clean the dust on the adapter plug and the data line regularly.
When it is exposed to dustyand dump environment for a long time, the dirt
surrounding the electric equipment will accumulate moisture, which may
causeshortcircuitand fire.
Use the included adapter to chargethe product.
Use of any other power supply accessories may cause serious
consequences such as equipment overheating, electric shock, fire, or
leakage,as wellas explosionofchemicals insidethebattery.
Do NOT use grinding additives, isopropanol or gaseous organic
solvents to clean the enclosure of the device.
Such operationmaydamagetheenclosureofthe device.
The product temperature may increase after charging for a long
time.
You mayfeelscorching heatwhentouchingthe sensors.
Problem caused by water condensation
Do NOT bring the instrument into low temperature environment from high
temperature environment or from low temperature environment to high
temperature environment instantly. Otherwise, water condensation maybe
caused inside the instrument and the enclosure of the device. To avoid
condensation,theinstrumentshould be putintoattachedinstrumentpackage
and taken out to use until itgraduallyadjusts to the ambient temperature.If
the product has water condensation inside, power it off immediately and
remove the battery. Otherwise, the instrument maybe damaged.Operation
is not allowed before watercondensation is gotridof.
Avoid impacting the product (such as collision and falling, etc).
Do NOT impact the product (such as collision and falling, etc). If not, the
productwillbe damaged.

v
Long-time storage and regular charging.
The product should be placed at a cool and dry environment if it not been
used for a long time. Ifthe product installed with batteryis stored for a long
time, charging should be made regularly. Otherwise, the batterywill run out
andits servicelife will beshortened.

General Introduction
For along time,infraredthermal imagingdetection technologyhas become
an important means toensure industrial safetyindeveloped countries. Itis
widely used in many fields including electric power, metallurgy, petro-
chemistry, machinery, coal, traffic, fire control and national defense, etc. It
can perform real-timedetection athigh voltage,highcurrentandhighspeed
to find potential problems and prevent malfunction. The "non- contact"
modern detection technology is safe, reliable and quick. It is a type of
technicalrevolutioncomparedwithtraditionalcontactdetectionmethod.
Theinfraredthermalimagingtechnologyis widelyused inthefollowing fields:
Powerequipment,transmission,transformerlineinspection.
Hiddenfiresource searchinfire protection.
Personnel search and rescue in the fire,andfire command.Analyzethe
location of leak points in heat pipes and heating equipment and heat
loss.
Determiningthelocationofthe heating fault of the operating train.
Security departmentnightmonitoring.
Overview
This infraredthermalcameraintegrates surfacetemperature measurement
and real-time thermal image. The traditional one needs to measure every
component one byone,while itis notnecessaryforinfrared thermal camera,
thus saving time. The potential problems may be shown on color display
screen clearly. Moreover, the central point measurement cursor is used to
quickly and accurately locate and measure the temperature of the target
object.
In order to increase the differentiation,the product is provided with avisible
lightcamera.Thethermalimages andvisibleimages arestoredinthedevice
and can be read through USB or stored in a computer to generate a report
for print.

Cleaning
Use clothdipped withsoap watertocleanthe enclosure ofthedeviceinstead
of grinding additives, isopropanol or solvent to clean. The lens and screen
shouldbecleanedwithopticalglass cleaner.
LensMaintenance
Prevent damageofthe infraredlens：
The lens is provided withrefined anti-reflection coating.Cleanthelens
with care soas not to damage the anti-reflection coating.
Usecleanerforlens maintenance,suchas alcohol-based commercial
lens cleaners, alcohol, and a lint-free cloth or tissue. Compressed air
tanks can beusedto remove looseparticles.
Cleanthe lens:
The compressedair tankor drynitrogen iongun (ifapplicable) maybe
used to blowthe looseparticles onthelens surface.
Dip the lint free cloth inalcohol.
Squeeze theexcessivealcohol inthecloth orapplythe lintfreeclothon
dry cloth lightly.

the above steps withnewcloth dippedwithcleanerif necessary.
Chargingthe BatteryandDescription
Use USB cable to charge:
The producthas built-inchargeable26650lithiumbatteries.
When batteryruns low,the upper-right ofthe screen will display" ".
Rechargeproductin timethrough a Micro USB port.
Pulloff the USB cable after the product is fullycharged.
To optimize the performance of lithium-ion batteries:
Do not connectthe battery to the chargerfor longerthan 24 hours.
The infrared thermal camera should be charged fortwo hours atleast
every threemonths so as tomaximize the battery servicelife.
Do not try to chargethe battery in extremelycoldenvironment.
